[Verse 1]
This week I'm saying all the right things
Being a sister to my siblings
Going to sleep without the light on
Taking a safer way to get home
[Pre-Chorus]
I called my uncles on my dad's side
Wishing them all a happy birthday
I wear all my beads I made when I was five
Email my favourite band and say hey
[Chorus]
And I know not to get my hopes up
But I feel better, I feel better
[Verse 2]
Looking for diamonds in the gallows
Looking for me inside someone else
I left my lane and couldn't get back
Found it again, blew out a lit match
[Pre-Chorus]
I called my aunties on my mum's side
Wishing them both a happy birthday
I'll throw away shit I made when I was five
Call back thе ones who care and say hey
[Chorus]
And I know not to gеt my hopes up
But I feel better
I feel better
I feel better
I feel better
I feel better
I feel better

This song’s me trying to grow up. It’s just where you feel like you’re just winning at life for a bit, you know? You’re just doing all the shit that you say you’re going to do. And you just feel like a capable, upstanding citizen for a little while.
